It has been known worldwide that 16 ounces are equivalent to a pound. But then, people are confused when a presented problem asks how many pounds are in a given number of ounces.
You simply change the equation. 16 oz = 1 lb
1 oz = 1/16 lb
You asked how many pounds are there in 20 ounces. We can easily solve it by multiplying 1/16 with 20!
1/16 x 20 = 5/4, or 1 1/4.
There you have it. Hereafter, there are 1 1/4 pounds in 20 ounces.
1 pound = 16 ounces - therefore 20 pounds = 20 x 16 = 320 ounces
125 pounds x 16 ounces/pound = 2,000 ounces
1.25 lbs. One pound equals to 16 ounces and one ounce equals 0.06 of a pound. Also this relates only to solid (weight) ounces. There are two different kinds of ounces, ounces of weight/mass and ounces of volume (fluid). This can change when you are using the ounces to measure a non-liquid such as flour or sugar since the weight of dry items is not the same as their volume. An ounce of volume is called a "fluid ounce."
First off, in this case it doesn't matter what the substance is, since you gave 2 weights. One pound is 16 ounces. So you divide 320 by 16. 320 : 16 = 20 So 320 ounces equals 20 pounds.
20 pounds is heavier than 300 ounces because 1 pound equals 16 ounces. So, 20 x 16 = 320.
1 pound = 16 ounces - therefore 20 pounds = 20 x 16 = 320 ounces
125 pounds x 16 ounces/pound = 2,000 ounces
20 ounces = 1.25 pounds
1.25 pounds = 20 ounces
20 pounds = 320 ounces
There are 16 ounces in one pound. Therefore, 20 ounces is equal to 1 pound, 4 ounces, or 1.25 pounds.
Your 20 ounces is 1.25 pounds, or 1 pound and 4 ounces.
20 pounds.
1.25 pounds.
There are 20 ounces in 1.25 pounds. This can be calculated by multiplying 1.25 pounds by 16 (since there are 16 ounces in 1 pound).
